Mischa Berlinski’s novel evoked the best and the least appealing memories of my own adventure living in Thailand. He clearly understood both the physical and emotional landscape. In capturing the expat experience so beautifully, Mischa shares both the advantages and the loneliness of being “the other”. I would recommend this book of cultural immersion to anyone planning on living in a different culture for any extended period of time. Bonus plot element – there’s a mystery to solve, too!
